§ Sir J. RANDLESasked the President of the Local Government Board whether he will communicate with the Fuel Controller as to the release of a certain amount of fuel and lighting for the use of candidates in their respective committee rooms at the forthcoming General Election?
Sir A. STANLEYMy right hon. Friend has asked me to answer this question. The local fuel overseers will be instructed to make such reasonable allowances of coal as may be necessary to prevent hardships to candidates and those engaged in the work involved by the election.
